No one could reasonably deny that blacks were are are subjected to racism and discrimination.
On the other hand, there is denial about the real risks of violence directed towards blacks. The odds of a black man being killed by a white cop is minute, especially when compared to the odds of a black man being killed by another black man.
There is also a tendency on the part of whites to attribute "ghetto" behavior to all blacks.

In the same vein it is a tendency on the part of blacks to believe whites are still leading the charge in racial discrimination.

The black men I know are all good tippers. I think it is more a woman problem.

Every time I hear a cry for reparations, I think "why me ... I grew up in Hawaii."

Conjuring up the story of the "black savage superhuman brute that flies through bullets" that was trying to mow down the good white savior cop narrative HAS EVERYTHING to do with race.
1. there is no conjuring. Eye witness testimony and forensic evidence reviewed independently all support Wilson's story.
2. savage super human brute? he's enormous. he could very easily overpower most people (black and white, and god I can't believe I feel the fricking need to make the distinction) he was beating him, as evidenced by facial injuries, running towards him, indisputable. And at one point went for his gun
3. you see everything through race. It's ok sometimes to do that, we've self segregated, there's a gap that exists...the old "black people do this/white people do that" routine in comedy...but if you think they're just mowing down black people for nothing more than to execute them because of their skin color, then you're deluded or insane.
4. this is 100% fact...white cops who are involved in justifiable homicides kill white people more than black people...the same is true of black cops...2/3 they kill black people. 90% of murder involving white offenders is intra racial. 84% of crimes involving black offenders is intra racial.
5. the police aren't going to choose black people to police black neighborhoods and white people to police white neighborhoods...do you realize how the "more representative of our community" sounds...you're essentially arguing in favor of "separate but equal" Holy shite, does anyone else think this is fricking stupid? Enough with the bullshite. You fricking know all of this anyway. You're nothing but a regression...you judge everything by skin color, everything...you openly argue for segregation...it's so fricking insulting to the people who gave up their lives for civil rights...holy shite.
I judge a few things here and there by skin color, and it isn't all white people good, black people bad...it's just a reality of life. Some stereotypes are very real...but you see it everywhere in everything. Jesus fricking Christ!

Just disagreeing with your statement. I don't think there was a consensus in this thread.
I certainly don't believe that but i'm biased.

FIFY, and so what? I don't get offended because I'm white? rednecks are overwhelmingly white.

So I take you being biased as you really know its the truth but your race is getting in the way.

I have another "black" stereotype I would like you to give your insight on
Blacks.....especially females, have a tendency to become rather loud, animated and boisterous when in a group. I typically do not see this type of "communication" when there are only two blacks conversing or when one black person is conversing with a white person. However, it seems to be the norm when there are 3 or more. Surely, you know what I am referring to. Like at the mall or a movie theatre and they are all shouting over each other and at the same time. It gets so loud and I just wonder why they are all screaming at each other and demonstrating such dis-respect to one another. It just seems so uncivilized and illogical. I rarely see this type of behavior from whites. Not even the white trash so I can't be certain it is just a socio economic issue at work. As a black man, can you give me some insight into why so many black people behave this way in groups? I have always been curious if it is just the way you are raised.

I don't think its the truth. I believe its the stereotype. Speaking from personal experience its about 50/50.
Most of my friends are good tippers, most of my family is kinda bad. I could say that about my white friends and associates. When I was in college the Indians I knew never really tipped from what I saw.
I think ignorant/low income/trashy people are horrible tippers no matter what race.
Also young.

Then you must not get out much. Just go sit by the frat guys at an LSU game.
It seems that you are just trying to get a rise.

When I worked in the service industry, teenagers from middle to upper middles class families and elderly white women were the worst tippers. This is totally anecdotal though, and I worked in a mostly white area.

I mean come on SS. Stereotypes are there for a reason. You don't see a bunch of short white guys in a room and think "Bet those frickers can play some basketball".
Think about it like this. People are bred with certain genetics. White folk don't have the athlete gene for the most part. My border collie has NEVER been taught how to herd sheep, but he can do it like a champ. HOW? Why is this even possible? Is it racist to say "All border collies are good as frick at sheep herding". Nope because it's true.

Tipping isn't a genetic trait. It may be a cultural thing though.
